Bayern Munich coach Thomas Tuchel could be sacked after the first leg of the UEFA Champions League quarterfinals.
“The game against Arsenal on Tuesday could be the Munich board’s last stand against Tuchel,” Patrick Strasser of Germany’s AZ reported on Monday (Aug. 8). There is talk within the club that Miroslav Klose could replace Tuchel until the end of the season if the situation becomes irreversible.”
Munich will face Arsenal in the UEFA Champions League quarterfinal first leg of the 2023-2024 season at the Emirates Stadium in London, England, on Tuesday at 4:00 am.
For Munich, it’s all about the Champions League this season. This season, Munich will be the first team in 12 years to win the German Bundesliga title. Munich is in second place in the league with 19 wins, three draws, and six losses for 60 points, 16 points behind first-place Bayer Leverkusen. It’s virtually impossible to win the title.
They’ve already been knocked out of their domestic cup competition. Munich beat Prussia Münster 4-0 in the first round of the DFB-Pokal to advance to the second round, but were eliminated in the second round with a 1-2 loss to third division side Saarbrücken. In the DFL-Supercup, they were beaten 0-3 by Leipzig in the first leg.
The only competition left is the UEFA Champions League. However, winning it won’t be easy. The Champions League quarterfinals have been drawn in such a way that it’s not surprising who survives. Atletico Madrid, Dortmund, PSG, Manchester City, Real Madrid, Barcelona, and Arsenal are all big clubs. It’s highly unlikely that Munich will win the title, given their poor form this season.
Munich will part ways with Tuchel at the end of the season. Munich announced on the club’s official website in February that they have decided to part ways with 카지노사이트 Tuchel after mutually terminating his contract. The club is currently working on finding a replacement. Roberto De Zerbi is currently the first choice for the job.
However, there is a possibility that Munich could part ways with Tuchel before the end of the season. Munich has been in a very bad mood lately. They have already lost two consecutive league games. They lost 0-2 against Dortmund on March 31, and then came back from a two-goal deficit to lose 2-3 against Heidenheim on March 6.
As Patrick Strasser reports, a poor performance in the first leg against Arsenal could lead Munich to sack Tuchel as soon as possible. They have already made plans to appoint former Munich striker Klose as interim coach.
However, the club will only pull the trigger in the worst case scenario. ”This plan is an emergency solution that will only be considered in the event of a total disaster,” Strasser explained.
Tuchel’s departure could also change Kim Min-Jae’s position. After starting the first half of the season with Tuchel’s complete trust, Kim has recently lost his place to Eric Dier and Matthias der Licht. With Klose’s departure, Kim could find himself back in the starting lineup.
